Several Hollywood stars have come together to do what they can to help others amid coronavirus concerns. Actor Ryan Reynolds announced that he and his wife, Blake Lively, are donating USD 1 million to help those struggling to access meals during the pandemic.
The Deadpool star took to Twitter to announce the donation to Feeding America and Food Banks Canada. In an accompanying photo, the actor explained why he and his wife were making the donation, then joked about his celebrity friend and sometimes rival, Hugh Jackman.
"I think we can all agree, Covid-19 is an a**hole. If you can help, visit, http://FeedingAmerica.org and/or http://FoodBanksCanada.ca," he posted.
The picture read, "Covid-19 has brutally impacted older adults and low income families. Blake and I are donating $1 million to be split between FEEDING AMERICA and FOOD BANKS CANADA. If you can give, these orgs need our help. Take care of your bodies and hearts. Leave room for joy. Call someone who's isolated and might need connection. (Hugh Jackman's # is 1-555-????-HUGH.)"
